Hi Alex, Please ignore the below mail. It looks like, the issue is with the recommended elliptic curves, should have a property where the degree of the curve is > 160. So all the curves with curve degree < 160 will be rejected. You should be able to bypass the condition if you want to use the above curves only. Regards, Kiran
